Investment Q&A

Q: The above stocks make up 80.4% of my holdings. Goog and BN @7% each. The next 5 @ 4% each and the rest at or close to 3% each. For a 10 year horizon, with risk/reward in mind, where would you invest if you had 10% of the portfolio in dry powder- new cash. Any you would sell? Note, I have been trimming CLS, VRT and NBIS to control AI exposure.

Thanks again for all the insights - love the service you provide.

Q: I am down in all these stocks recently.
If you had to pick 10 stocks to DCA today, in what order would you buy them? I am planning to DCA slowly.

Are any of them obvious sells that could use to DCA Into others.

I am looking to hold 2-3 years. Thanks

Q: Gentlemen;
If you could only buy one stock which one would you buy today, META or CSU, with a 3 year investment horizon for total return?

Q: I know that CSU will be widely sold before year end, but I am encouraged that you are still recommending it. So where do you see it turning around before year end and being a buy? Just your best guess and no promises expected…

Q: Is there any recent insider buying of CSU? Do you think we have seen most of the bad news?

Thanks for all your help,

Mike

Q: Hi team,
I own LMN and TOI but not CSU. With the recent weakness in the group would you see it a better move to sell both LMN and TOI to consolidate into the larger CSU? Or would you continue to view LMN/TOI as having more long term upside compared to CSU due to their smaller size and still safe to hold the smaller spin offs? I won't need the funds for a decade or so at least.

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: We just opened a TFSA account for my daughter, she is 18.

Money is not needed for a long time. Our aim is to maximize the growth, risk tolerant, tax efficiency and easy to manage.

Would you recommend ETF's or Individual stocks? How many positions? What companies/ETF?

Also, is there a place for bitcoin? If yes what %.

Thanks in advance

Q: Why is stock down 5% today, after decent earnings ?

The most severe downgrades seem to come from Jefferies ( $4500 from $5850 and RJ ( $4300 from $5250), although most other analysts have made only moderate changes.

As you mentioned in your comments, stock has seen the largest drawdown in its history, now almost 40%, from its high, on the back of AI related concerns and CEO stepping down.

Do you foresee any meaning recovery/catalysts, over next 12 months, or it would be prudent to lighten up based on its horrible technicals ?

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and 5i,
Can you give us the adjusted EPS figure after CSU reports today? Their published EPS is always a fraction of the adjusted.
Thanks so much.

Q: hi, can I get your current top 5 Canadian growth stocks for a TFSA today. And could I get your top 5 "beaten down of late" Canadian stocks that you feel have the best potential for a recovery in the next 1-6 months. cheers and thanks and take as many points as you need...

Q: Would you take a tax loss on CSU in November or wait till December? Thank you

Q: CSU cash flow was up an impressive 33% and organic growth continues to trend above historical average. Yet the shares have taken the worst beating of its public life, down around 35%, and now trade at a very reasonable valuation. Is it not in the best interest of shareholders for CSU to invest in its own stock at this point of time given these unique confluence of circumstances?

Thanks.

Q: What are your thoughts on CSU's earnings?

Q: What would be a good entry point for these three high quality companies ?

Q: Could you please provide earning/rev estimates. Thanks

Q: I happened by accident to check the trading on CSU at 2:30 today (Monday). Volume was 0! I thought there might be a cease trade order on the stock but couldn’t find any. It appears the bid just couldn’t meet the ask so no trades. Do you think a base is being formed?
Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Jim

Q: Assuming that one is a bit overweight in CSU and lacking NVDA, how would you consider a reallocation of investment dollars at the current time (i.e., realizing they have been trending in opposite directions)?

Relatedly, would you be comfortable purchasing NVDA at current levels (~$205).

Thanks!

Q: Based on the trading of CSU over the last week or so it seems when there is weakness in AI stocks or commentary in the press about an AI bubble, CSU trades up. When AI stocks are strong like today CSU trades down, sometimes sharply. Owning CSU seems to be a way to hedge against an AI bubble being pricked. Of course if the bubble is a delusion then owning CSU may prove painful. It seems also there are market jitters going into CSU’s quarter and volume was up on today’s decline.

Q: Can you give me your latest thoughts on these 7 stocks along with good entry points c/w rating (out of 10) and also in what order to buy



Thanks for your great service

Q: All the Constellation Software and related Co's had a really bad day in the markets, Wednesday, with stocks trading at new near term lows, ( Down 6-10%, in a single session ), breaking below their recent support levels.

Not sure, if some of this selling could be assigned to algorithm trading ( stop loss orders) ?

You have been a huge supporter of the stocks, and for good reasons, through the recent selling ( AI concerns and M Leonard departure related ), even highlighting CSU, as one of your Best trading ideas,

Based on your comments and most analyst ratings, these concerns are overblown and stocks should recover, in due course, as, apparently, nothing has fundamentally changed and business is as usual. However, market seems to think otherwise and price action has just been horrible.

While some investors are probably selling not to lose their built in profits over years, there could be others harvesting tax losses.

Interestingly, it is noted that these stocks generally have a bad day when AI related Companies are enjoying a nice bump, like Today ( Wednesday). And AI related boom is likely to continue to drive the markets, at least in the foreseeable future.

We are in the camp of concerned investors, with significant embedded gains in these companies, as early investors, and are worried, if we should liquidate our positions, at least partially ( half or 1/3rd ), to protect our gains. What are your thoughts ?

It looks like that a string of catalysts is needed to infuse life back into the three stocks ( specially CSU ). What could these be, in your opinion and how long would you recommend for investors to be patient ?

Thank You
